69 charger upper rear Cross member / shock brace - fitment question

So I've pulled out the old rear shock cross member after it looked like someone made an attempt to learn to weld when adding additional bracing, was not pretty.
So I have a replacement from AMD, and the floor pan forward of the brake is original and not messed with.
When I go to mock up the part there is a 1/2 inch gap either side between the brace and the frame rails.
This is similar to how the original one was and I guess why in the past someone added some extra metal and some atrocious welding to connect the sides together.
Is there supposed to be a gap?
Rear Cross brace under rear bumper is original and not twisted.
No obvious bends in frame rails.
Would love to see how other people's installs look like?
